Die Tat

Die Tat (The Deed or The Action) was a German monthly publication of politics and culture.

In 1928 Diederichs transferred editorial control of Die Tat to the writer Adam Kuckhoff (who was later executed by the Nazis).

Hans Zehrer would become (unofficial) chief editor of Die Tat in September 1929 (now subtitled as Unabhängig Monatsschrift zur Gestaltung neuer Wirklichkeit), and would together with Ernst Wilhelm Eschmann, Ferdinand Fried and Giselher Wirsing make Die Tat into an influential promoter of the Tatkreis and the Conservative Revolutionary movement.

It also provided a front for Kurt von Schleicher, when Die Tat took control of the Berlin paper Tägliche Rundschau in 1932.

In 1933 the Nazis took control of the publication and Giselher Wirsing would become its main editor, changing the subtitle of the magazine to Unabhängige Monatsschrift in 1934.
